This request is from:

<mailto:"JennBuck@aol.com">

i really have a mess here. no one seems able to help - this is a desperate
attempt:

**i need to disable the ENTER key on the G3 powerbook.**

it's placement means i frequently mistakenly send out emails or do other
enter functions when i'm actually trying to hit the space key. apple says
look for third party software, but i haven't found any... ANY IDEAS????? i
love the rest about the computer, but this problem is critical and
embarassing enough that it's pushing me away.

Subject: Tidbit - iMac Attack In Singapore

This tidbit is from:

Joseph Talcott <mailto:"JTalcott@compuserve.com">

I travel to Singapore very often and have shopped at the incredible Funan
Center, a shopping center with 8.5 floors filled with virtually only
computer stores. However, over the past two years you had to search to find
any Mac hardware or software. One lonely place, Mac Shop, kept the brand
barely visible. Until iMac. I visited again today and was amazed to find
the iMac displayed in about one in every three shops. Even those not
selling Apple were using it to demonstrate Mac software. An amazing
transformation!

Subject: Followup - MARS Launched!

This follow-up is from:

Mac-arena <mailto:"macrulez@softhome.net">

I send out all my PRs a few days early, to help account for the waiting
period associated with the crowd of people who post to the EvangeList
daily. Problem: I must've sent out all queued message instead of "this
message" (if you use Emailer you probably know what I did) sooooo the PR
got sent out with the others - minus an URL.

Well, the site is being prepared as I write this, and by the time you read
it it *should* be up (having had Tripod and Xoom bust on me, take that
statement with a salt mine or three).

So, the URL is/will be <http://www.vallejonet.net/mars> and email is/will
be <mars@vallejonet.net>.

Remember, I'll check the email and update the site weekly, if I can. So
about every wednsday or so (?) replies will be sent to questions and
updates put to the site. Thanks for bearing with me! :)

Subject: Tidbit - Becoming Apple-Authorized Self-Servicing Account

This tidbit is from:

Mark Crosten <mailto:"mark@macink.com">

This week's topic at Macink is "Becoming An Apple-Authorized Self-Servicing
Account."

The report is available immediately on the front page of Macink at the URL:
<http://www.macink.com>

Have you ever lamented the fact that you had to rely on Apple, an
Apple-authorized retailer or an Apple-authorized service provider to fix a
Macintosh? Have you ever lost valuable time waiting for a warranty repair
on a Mac to happen? Have you ever had a technician "fix" a problem and have
the problem reappear as soon as the tech leaves? Well, if you meet certain
criteria and can spend some money, you might be able to become an
Apple-authorized self servicing account. That means you could get the
training and certification to perform your own in-warranty and
out-of-warranty repairs on Apple branded products for your organization.
Think of the time you could save and the hoops you wouldn't have to jump
through to get your Apple equipment back on- line.

This report is based on personal experience and Apple documents. If you
operate in a deadline-oriented environment, becoming authorized to perform
your own repairs on Apple equipment could save you lots of time and
frustration.
